In this episode of LkldNow in View, she tells host Andrea Oliver of a turning point while ticking off a bucket list item with her husband; it involved scaling a peak via cable and harness: “We climbed to the top of this mountain. It was called Mount Nimbus. And I got to the top of the mountain and threw my arms up in the air and thought, ‘If i can conquer this, i can battle cancer.’ “
